Zelta sighted the small scroll that lay on the floor, beside the door. She was surprised to see the scroll there, because she never saw anyone bringing her anything else apart from food. She figured that the person must have brought it to her so early, when she was still asleep, even before the arrival of the messenger guard.
Zelta was so curious to know what was written in the scroll. Her first guess was that it might have come from Simon, but since Gideon was dead, who else would want to take the risk of delivering letters from the werewolf, she wondered.
Just to satisfy her curious mind, Zelta went straight to the door area, and picked up the scroll. She took it with her to the desk. When she got there, she loosed the string that was tied around it, and opened it.
